De renaissance was dus tussen de 14e en 16e in deze tijd werd er vooral heel veel poetry en literatuur geschreven. Shakespeare leefde natuurlijk ook in deze tijd en hij is heel beroemd geworden met al zijn stukken en vooral ook de schrijfstijl die hij gebruikte. Vooral de sonnetten waren in deze tijd heel erg populair, deze stijl is een gedicht met 14 regels begon in Italië maar verspreidde zich snel door Europa. Ook Shakespeare maakte veel sonnetten.
In de Italiaanse sonnetten maken ze alles heel mooi van mijn vrouw is echt een engel en super mooi maar Shakespeare zegt meer van ja mijn vrouw was eigenlijk helemaal niet zo mooi, maar we houden we van elkaar en dat is het belangrijkste. Shakespeare wilde dus meer het echte in zijn gedichten vertellen want hij zei ook van ja je kan ook helemaal niet zo mooi zijn als een engel.

In the time of the Renaissance, religion and faith still had an important role in literature, but the main genres were poetry and drama. Comedies and satires did still exist. Poetry was one of the most valued forms of literature. The most used poetic forms were lyric, tragedy, elegy or pastoral. Pastoral literature is a genre that has both prose and poetry.

The renaissance is a period focused on the classical antiquity (de klassieke oudheid). This is because it is the time period after the middle ages, they saw the middle ages as this dark period between the classical antiquity and the current age. Therefor they idolised the classical antiquity again. In the renaissance they focused a lot on the human as an individual. With this, also scientific knowledge and intellectual development became a huge part of society and therefor had a big influence on the literature.
People began thinking for themselves, and not only assuming thing were the way they were because of god.
